Onderwerp: [Tunis Group 2 - CI futur Consult & +] Aspects of caringness Dear friends The list of 106 possible 'aspects of IC caringness' appears daunting, but I am familiar with iterative techniques that reduce the complexity, and highlight priorities within such a list. No doubt others have similar experience ... To commence a process, I am content with the following seven aspects. 3 Group to discuss criteria for getting in a "consensus decision perimeter " eg IC ( 2004) 8 maintain a space for exchange on practices between convergence assemblies organizers. e.g. The Asian Discussion Forum addresses this need 9 sustain & design websites to give views and infos such as openfsm.net ( from 2008). Facebook pages and Wordpress blogs are also being used, but pose collective memory challenges 20 sustain working group for systematization of solidarity economy around an sf event.

This discussion is occuring elsewhere within civil society too, and may arrive at similar/different assessments. I support collective participation, but would like to hear the individual participation argument. I wish to convey sustenance to the G2 workgroup for your capacity to keep nourishing this project.
